Project Overview

This cedar gate replacement project in Roanoke, TX focused on a single 4-foot-wide gate opening. The scope
called for removing the old gate entirely and rebuilding a new one in a 6-foot-tall, side-by-side cedar style,
supported by a new heavy-gauge metal post set in concrete. No additional linear footage of fence was included —
this was a targeted, single-gate rebuild.
Because the project was scoped around just the gate, the homeowner got a fully rebuilt access point without the
cost of replacing the surrounding fence line. Free haul-away of the old gate materials and job-site debris was
included.

Materials and Construction Process Behind This Cedar Gate Replacement

The new gate was built using 1x6, 6-foot cedar pickets arranged side by side, framed with 2x4 pressure-treated
rails. A new 13-gauge metal post was set in concrete 24 to 30 inches deep, finished with a galvanized cap and
Simpson bracket for added structural strength. The finished gate received a Medium Brown pre-dip stain, giving it a
warm, even tone that blends naturally with an existing cedar fence line.
Rebuilding just the gate, rather than the full fence, is a practical option whenever the surrounding fence panels are
still in good shape but the gate itself has reached the end of its service life.

Why Roanoke, TX Homeowners Choose A&O Texas Solutions for Gate Rebuilds

Roanoke's hot summers and heavy clay soils put real strain on gate posts and hardware, which tend to wear out
faster than the rest of a fence due to daily opening and closing. A newly rebuilt gate with a concrete-set post and a
proper stain finish is designed to hold up far better than a sagging, weathered original.
Homeowners across Roanoke and the surrounding DFW area choose a focused cedar gate replacement like this
one when they want to:
• Replace a single worn or sagging gate without rebuilding the whole fence
• Get a new concrete-set post for a solid, long-lasting foundation
• Match a new gate's stain color to an existing cedar fence line
• Restore smooth, reliable gate operation in a short, focused visit
• Save on cost compared to a full fence replacement
Because cedar is a natural material, some variation in grain and tone is normal, but the combination of
pressure-treated framing, a concrete-set post, and a Medium Brown pre-dip stain gives this new gate a durable,
cohesive look alongside the rest of the property's fencing.

Project Timeline and Results

By the end of this cedar gate replacement, the homeowner in Roanoke, TX had a brand-new 4-foot-wide, 6-foot-tall
cedar gate finished in Medium Brown, backed by A&O Texas Solutions' 2-year labor warranty. The project required
no additional fence footage, with free debris haul-away included, leaving the property clean and the gate ready to
use.
This project is a great example of what a focused cedar gate replacement can deliver: a fully rebuilt, properly
stained gate that solves the problem without the cost of a full fence rebuild.
